5K - Woodlands, TX

It's official...I ran my first race on Sat. It kicked my butt! My time was okay, but I was not as prepared as I thought I was...I'd better keep working on it if I really think I will ever be able to do a marathon...speaking of which...it's only 157 days away! So all you pro distance runners out there...any advice to a new distance runner?

Side note: Does it ever bug anyone else that when you type Illinois in certain fonts it looks like this: Illinois. UGH...It drives me crazy...it looks like 3 lowercase L's. Just a weird insite to my crazy brain!

Memory Lane

Thanks to my friend Tiff for the idea...hopefully this will work!

Here are the directions:
1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments. C'mon now, anything funny, strange, cool, embarrassing, or awful you remember about me?? This could be interesting...

Update

Hello...I know it's been forever...we have been busy! Here's an update for you....

-Carson turned three! I can't believe it. He is such a big boy now! Time flies!
-We went to NY for the Hill Cummorah Pagent and saw the church history sites. It was good, other than a little stressful situation that happened there...Hailey got locked in the car, it was awful...need I say more?
-Got back home and we are now caught up on laundry and grocery shopping...Hopefully I will post some pictures from the vacay soon!

Random Acts of Kindness

Thank you to whomever dropped off cookies at our door today. We were snoozing away (favorite Sunday activity). It is nice to know that someone was thinking about us! So thank you, who ever you are! You made our day and the cookies were delicious!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

Happy Anniversary Bridger! I love you! 5 YEARS! Wow, our lives have sure changed a lot!

Blueberry Farm

We went to the Blueberry Farm early Sat. morning. It was so much fun. Unfortunately we forgot the camera. Hailey was eating the blueberries out of our buckets faster than we could put them in! We took some pictures when we got home. Here's 8.5 lbs of blueberries!

We packaged up a lot to stick in the freezer.

Carson and Hailey taste testing some of the berries.

Swimming Pool Fun!

We had a BUSY day saturday. We ran errands ALL MORNING and into the afternoon. Then we decided to relax and hit the pool! Too bad we went to the Island Club Pool, they had a pizza party at the Althetic Club pool at the same time we went. Oops!

Carson could turn the water on and off all day at the Splash Area.
